"Now really, is there anything to cry
about?"
"Oh, I feel so unhappy.”
"Yes, so I see. But crying without any real cause can only mean one thing: Nerves. You should try Sanatogen för a few weeks. It will brace you up wonderfully and once your nerves and blood are right you will feel yourself again--more disposed to laugh than to cry. And it will give you new appetite too, and bring colour to your cheeks. It has done that very thing for me."
Sanatogen infuses into the cells of blood and nerves exactly those elements -phosphorus and albumin-from- "which bodily health and nerve- strength are derived Over 24,000 physicians have, written enthusiastic letters about the success they obtained with Sanatogen.

To make the balls, we any recipe) for molasses or corn syrup candy, or just use sugar, melted to a thin syrup. If you do not have a good. corn syrup recipe, here is one which you may like. Use one cup of corn syrup, one cup of sugar, two table- spoons of water, one tablespoon of vinegar and two teaspoons of butter. Stir together, and put on a very slow fire, until the sugar is melt- ed. Then increase the heat sad boil, but do not atir except to pre- vent the candy from burning.

It is well to keep the fruit bowl full, and urge the children, and grown-ups too, to eat all they please. Too many fruit bowls are decorative to the eye and tempting to the palate, but are placed under "do not touch" instructions. If for it must be kept "just so”. visitors to admire, then have a second bowl in the playroom, so that children can always have fruit when they want it.
The same cannot be said of the nut dish, "however. Nuts are too rich to be taken in unsupervised quantities. And in addition, the shelling process should not be left in the hands of the young children.

MATCHING SHOES.
Carrying further the idea of matching shoes in colour and mate rial with evening dresses, comes that of having leather or wede shoes the same colour as the hat worn with summery afternoon dresses, or of the prevalent colour note of the ensemble.
